Default Does This Look Fishy?

I'm getting rid of my 4 wheeler to get a 4 stroke and something newer.
I found this on ebay but it looks kind of fishy.
look at where the buy it now is?
also the buy it now is really low.
but the person has over 200 feedbacks. I wonder if someone got hyjacked

look at the email I got back from this tard. the subject says polaris ranger. and he is trying to sell me a sweet road bike. duh

Hello,

My name is Amy Beth and first of all i want to thank you for your
interest in my 2006 Triumph Sprint ST 1050. I want you to know that
everything about this bike runs perfectly. If you are interested in buying,
the price is $ 2,900. You will receive along with the bike all papers and
receipts that you need to register it in your name, including the bill of
sale signed by me. The transaction will be done through eBay for our own
protection, no money in advance to me. I am registered with their secure
trader department and they will handle the trade. Your funds will be 100%
insured by eBay until you will receive and inspect the bike , and I will be
sure that I will receive the payment. If you have any questions at all,
please let me know and I will be more than willing to help you out! If you
would like to go ahead with an order right away contact me thru e-mail and
i will let you know more about the transaction.


Also here are some pix of the bike :

Just FYI. I used to get advertisements all the time through my business from companies that will sell already established ebay names with feedback. The number of positive feedbacks you want determine the price they charge. So don't be fooled by the feedback stats, they don't mean anything in the real world.
